In addition, molecular biological studies of urodele and caecilian AQPs, coupled with physiological and histological analyses, would give significant insights into the early evolution of the genes and functions of AQP2, AQP5, and AQP6.

Taxonomic studies of other vertebrates in localities of the Sierra de Aroa and in the Yurubi National Park have resulted in descriptions of new endemic species: a highland forest frog (Dendropsophus yaracuyanus Mijares-Urrutia & Rivero 2000); a caecilian (Caecilia flavopuntacta Roze & Solano 1963), and 10 fishes (Rodriguez-Olarte et al.

Biju, has named the new family Chikilidae, which means Caecilian in Garo, the local tribal language-consisting of tailless burrowing caecilians that evolved separately from other caecilian species more than 140 million years ago.

But if, as is suggested above, the final burial of Eusebius after his death in exile was on 26 Sept 313 and was a preliminary to the meeting of the Lateran Council a few days later, and since that Council supported (as it was no doubt planned that it would) the less rigorist point of view of Caecilian against the Donatists in Africa (where the point in dispute was similar), the case is strengthened for resolving the ambiguity about the stance of at least this one of the predecessors of Miltiades at Rome: it will have been Eusebius who was less rigorous than Heraclius, not vice versa.

That a terrestrial caecilian is sold commercially as fish bait, suggests that the species is a common one-at variance with the collective "knowledge" of herpetologists who viewed as ludicrous our excursions to collect caecilians.

Therefore the real tussle with the Donatists is not about what did or did not happen at Carthage when Caecilian was consecrated bishop to the anger of the Lady Lucilla and the Numidian episcopate: Non quaeramus antiqua quae gesta sunt (M 60.
